Whether or not you actually have anywhere to go is another matter entirely.
And at 18 you can do whatever you like.
As for moving out, in theory there is nothing to stop you. But very few private landlords will rent to under-18s, so you will have to be very lucky to find somewhere. It might even be illegal to let to under-18s, but I couldnt be certain.

Its not easy having your own place or even sharing a place with someone, it all revolves around money because it is not cheap to leave home. Your rent money, heating, electricity, food etc etc
Have a good think about wether you actually do want to move out or moreso can you actually afford to live if you leave home.
i'm pretty sure that you need a parent or guardian as guarantor. it might not be the law, but i know at the agency my cousin went to (she was 17) they wouldn't let to her without talking to her parents first.
incorrect.. you are not able to drive a Heavy Goods Vehicle until you're 21...
